Whistler Children's Festival is back

Fuelled by adventure, creativity, and giggles, Whistler's longest-running festival - the Whistler Children's Festival - is back for its 42nd year! The Whistler Children's Festival promises adventure around every corner of Whistler's Cultural Connector, featuring roving street performers, circus shows, science workshops and internationally acclaimed children's performers. Over the Victoria Day weekend (May 16–18), the Maury Young Arts Centre will come alive with eight show-stopping theatre performances and 11 creative workshops. Highlights include Juno Award-winning Norman Foote and the high-flying spectacle of The Rising Circus: Candyland. Plus, enjoy FREE activities every day during the festival—Bollywood dance performances, kids' karaoke, dance parties, face painting, drumming sessions and more! Get your walking (or dancing) shoes on and prepare for a jam-packed family adventure all weekend long!
